SQL Fiddle demo.I have inserted some sample data.
Challange
I need to find all the parents of the record where the title is Categories. How can I get all the parents with only a single query?
I mean I need this result:
Desired Output
id | title | controller | method | url | parent_id
----------------------------------------------------------------
3 | Modules | admin | modules | (NULL) | 0
17 | User Modules | modules | user_module | (NULL) | 3
31 | Categories | categories | category | (NULL) | 17
Let suppose I want to fetch an entry with all of its parent and I want to use the where condition id = 31, it should fetch above records.

level + 1 FROM pc a JOIN cte c ON a. parent = c. child ) SELECT distinct parent, child , level FROM cte order by level, parent; This will give you all descendants and the level.
A recursive CTE is a subquery which refer to itself using its own name. The recursive CTEs are defined using WITH RECURSIVE clause. There should be a terminating condition to recursive CTE. The recursive CTEs are used for series generation and traversal of hierarchical or tree-structured data.
To find out who that child's parent is, you have to look at the column parent_id , find the same ID number in the id column, and look in that row for the parent's name. In other words, Jim Cliffy has no parents in this table; the value in his parent_id column is NULL .
SELECT T2.id, T2.title,T2.controller,T2.method,T2.url
FROM (
SELECT
@r AS _id,
(SELECT @r := parent_id FROM menu WHERE id = _id) AS parent_id,
@l := @l + 1 AS lvl
FROM
(SELECT @r := 31, @l := 0) vars,
menu m
WHERE @r <> 0) T1
JOIN menu T2
ON T1._id = T2.id
ORDER BY T1.lvl DESC;
